Butch & Co.Hi Ben,
Marvin Yagoda's brilliant and extensive pinball website [ http://marvin3m.com/ ] has it as
a 1941 manufacture, although we've also seen it (sorry, can't recall the source) dated to 1939.
Here's the page for it at Marvin's:

Not to shill for Marvin, but if you're in the southern Michigan - northern Ohio area,
he'll do repair work. A web search should find someone in your geographic area
who does repair/restoration.
